If you're wondering why 20:12-20:43 is silent, it's because the footage from the movie I used there had copyrighted music over it that I did not get a claim on until several days after uploading and posting. It's not absolutely essential to the video, but getting rid of it does severely mess with the flow. I found muting that section to be the least disruptive option, but it's obviously still pretty disruptive, so if you want to view an unaltered version of the video, you can click the link below to watch it for free on my Patreon.

Engagement Question: Who's your favorite Spider-Person aside from Miles and Peter? Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Ham, or Peni Parker?
And as always, thank you so much for watching! I hope it meant something to you.
Still a Peter Parker, but 2008 Spectacular Spider-Man
Probably Spider-Man noir :)
Gwen Stacy AKA Spider-Woman/Spider-Gwen/Ghost Spider
In the film, definitely Nicolas Cage as Noir
Spiderman into Spider Verse is the best Spiderman movie.
I like to think that Miles still was scared when it came to his leap of faith, and due to this the glass breaks. He can't unstick, but he overcomes that uncomfortability by rushing through it - and when he's in the air, when that leap is taken, the music starts playing and Miles is comfortable in a new space, he's grown as a character
Agreed 💋❤❤
@@shineyourtrueself3512 uh
❤❤❤ I feel same while bike riding and listening music
Across The Spider-verse Spoilers:
A similar thing happens in the sequel film while he is being chased down by Miguel and the spider society. He jumps off of the vertical train hundreds of feet in the air going at hundreds of miles an hour. He pushes off with one foot and shrapnel from the train gets pulled off by his foot.
He took another leap of faith.
@@gemof_gemsyou feel like you've finally grown into your own version of a preconceived ideal that you were struggling to match up to until you realised you just had to let go and believe in yourself, in spite of the uncertainty?
There's also the man that sets the entire plot into motion, Kingpin. A man who instead of escaping his comfort zone desperately clings to it to the point of obsession, willing to endanger the multiverse to get it back. Kingpin can't handle being forced out of his comfort zone even slightly, he kills Spider-Man to maintain his delusion of control. When this sad man sees that an alternate version of his family, his comfort, utterly TERRIFIED of him he quickly flies into a blind rage, lashing out at Miles because Spider Man has to be the one at fault, not himself.
Kingpin becomes a monster because he can't let go of his comfort zone. This is a man willing to Damm the entire multiverse so he never has to face the struggles of the world, someone who didn't take that leap of faith.
Interesting observation.
@@shadowgamer4306 It's something I only noticed on a rewatch because it's very subtle. The first time through you just assume Kingpin is being played as the evil mob boss he usually is.
Well said
Colddddd 💎
Good observation.
Miles fighting Kingpin cause he finally got out of his comfort zone and for the other hand, Kingpin, who is fighting Miles cause he hasnt and doesnt want to escape his comfort zone.
The movie came out just a few weeks before my final exams to become a physiotherapist and I was SCARED TO DEATH! After seeing this movie, this superhero movie for kids, I was able to let go of that fear! Before each of the many exams I put on "What's up danger" on full blast on my headphones and that helped me so damn much! It's been my favorite movie of all time for all these years and it'll be hard for any movie to top that!
Being appropriate for everyone doesn't mean it's just for kids. A lot of adults put their hearts into making ISTV and it shows, it's made to be appreciated by people who grew up with the characters as much as it is by people who have never read a Spider-Man book in their lives
@@Radi_nce i wish everyone thought the way you do. But a lot of people think all comics and animation are for children. Both are just a medium like books or live action, but idiots still dismiss them.
@@DzustComics No, because it is true. A lot of people miss out on a lot of good shows and movies just because they discredit it for being a "cartoon." I wish a lot of people would watch more cartoons. 😔
I also loved listening to songs from this movie. Also „it’s a leap of faith” helped me to do some things which i was scared to do 😊
now im curious to hear your opinion on the second movie😅
"He could not see the value past the discomfort". That really spoke to me man, I need to find my courage for that leap of faith.
That is why Spider-Man is The Best Superhero Off all Time
Best OF all time
The fact that it’s spelled wrong makes this even funnier to me
You didn't forget the hifen, I respect that
mostly the most relatable but ya
Fact
And that song "What's up danger" tells exactly what Miles felt when jumping of that building. He faces his fear, his danger, then to overcome it. And when his web first connected to the building, the song is saying "Can't stop me now", which is also describes Miles feelings.
WOW.
SERIOUSLY, I can not watch one of your videos without letting out at least one tear. I don’t know if it’s your voice, or the way you write your scripts, but your words always feel so genuine and human, and they always get to me. Thank you Alexander.
same. i fr think it’s his writing and expression in his voice.
Wtf
Same
I fr started ugly crying at the creed video
Literally me
As a trans woman who suffers from anxiety, the part about taking that leap of faith and being the best possible person you can be made me bawl my eyes out. I hadn't even realized who I was until about 2 years ago since the household I grew up in did nothing but judge me and set expectations of me. I holed myself in my room, my own comfort zone, for years on end not even thinking about who I was or what I was going to be because that was too scary. All I could ever think about was how much I disliked the people I disliked and how I was so much of a better person than them, as well as wanting so desperately to meet the expectations of the people I *did* like and admire. I never even thought once about what I wanted for myself. I'm doing a bit better now, trying my best to be my best self and take steps out of my comfort zone, but I still have a lot of work to do. Thank you for this masterpiece of a movie breakdown.
The fact that there's a short film accompanying ATSV that details Miles experiencing an anxiety attack definitely hammers the message in your video home.
For anyone wondering, the short film is called "The Spider Within" and it's premiering at a comic-con this week.
yo thanks dor the heads up
The only thing missing from the final segment was this movie's Stan the Man saying "It always fits... eventually", but other than that, yeah. Anyone can be their own Spider-Man, and that's the beauty of it. Another great video as always.
when miles takes the leap of faith, he breaks the glass behind him, because his hands were sticking while he pushed himself away. he sticks when hes scared. he did it despite being scared, which is why it was brave
My favorite aspect about the father figure approach to analyzing this movie is that each of the father figures represent a part of Miles's identity.
I literally never put this together and now the way I feel about this character makes so much sense. I couldn't figure out why I, a 34 year old white guy, felt so strongly connected to someone so different from me. It's because I subconsciously understood why he dissappears when he does and why he uses his other powers how he does.
And man, I'm sitting here crying from all the realizations and how beautifully written and edited this is. Freaking love this, buddy. Keep up the amazing work my guy.
This is the best breakdown I’ve seen of this movie, I feel like every breakdown and review I’ve seen only talks about how great it looks and how much fun it is which is true but I love how you actually looked at what the movie is truly about at its core. Keep up the great work man.
agreed
When I was watching "into the Spiderverse" this weekend on television, I especially paid close attention to Miles's learning curve in using his new Spider Superpowers. When I saw him not being able to control his wall-sticking ability and invisibility, I thought immediately of how it took me 6 years to swim in summer camp. I also thought of the original Spiderman comics from the 60's. It is implied that it took about a year for Peter Parker to master all of his Spider Superpowers.
That was all beautifully said… as someone who has struggled with anxiety for a couple of years now, I find (and always have found) spider man, and especially Miles Morales, to be huge inspirations in my life and characters to look up to. I just watched Across the Spiderverse today, and I feel so inspired by it. I managed to push through a lot of personal anxieties in my life while watching it, and it felt amazing. Miles, and the rest of the characters, are such big inspirations. I took a leap of faith while watching the movie, and I felt so empowered after walking out of the theatre. I appreciate how real and relatable Miles struggles are, and I see parts of myself in him. The saying is really true, “anyone can wear the mask” and that’s so powerful ❤️
I agree. His dad is trying to push him to succeed and sets the bar high. He already learned the lesson of taking responsibility but has no idea how to make it palatable, and I really like that he is still a sympathetic character despite that.
Thanks for this, I needed it. Thanks for reminding me to put on the mask and take the leap of faith that is waiting for me.
Same
miles’ story is told so well by this guy, i felt everything. as if i relived moments where i can relate to the story telling and its amazing that someone could rephrase the same story and have just as much of an impact as the original.
Man I love that people appreciate and care for these stories as much as I do, too many people look at art at surface levels and don't see all the deeper meaning things have to offer. Thank u for being one of the people who get it, ur videos are always great
Yes
You're so deep bro
is that sarcasm..? @@daleycarter
Love your channel, man. Keep it up. :)
Edit: I feel like throwing this out. This channel is the only channel that has nearly brought me to tears. You puncture the heart of why stories are so impactful and more importantly - human. It's very rare that I find something and drop everything to watch it, honestly there's only one or two that hold that level of status in spite of the fact that I found this channel not even a week earlier. I'm rooting for you bro, keep making these awesome videos.
Literally reading this comment as a tear rolls down my face
Me too man me too 😖
I am crying. Suffering from anxiety and several else health issues makes me so vulnerable rn that I can't keep my tears in...
Miles is a character I relate to a lot. I am an artist (finding comfort and support in this giant world of creativity) with a mother who has way too many expectations in me. My grandmother is the person I am running to every time I feel like the world is crushing down on me...
You see... I saw the movie yesterday. The second part. Across the spiderverse. And I started to tear up in the middle of the film, with no particular reason whatsoever, just because I could feel the emotions through the screen and they literally crushed me with their weight.
You are not alone. When I watched Across the Spiderverse there were actually certain points that made me tear up due to recent occurrences in my life that made me feel the need to have the previous circumstances I did back.
You're not alone brother, but you know what, one way or another, everything is going to be okay. For the both of us.
same, except i dont have anywhere to run to except my bed and my little diary where i let it all out with no judgement because whenever you feel like you let it out you regret it and you feel like this person now sees you differently and that you rather disappear from their life after you fail to be that beacon of joy everyone says you are. My mother also expects so much of me, everyone does and one day it feels like you wont be able to take it anymore :/
This is me right now it’s been 4 days since I seen it if been extremely depressed since. I’m always emotional after things end but it’s never been this bad I relate to miles character a lot and I just love how he had a bigger exciting purpose in life after he became Spider-Man.. how he had adventures with his friends.. I loved how realistic and relatable his character is I just I’ve been so sad bro idk why fr but I just wish I had someone like him in my life or something.
I wish I could just swing away like he could whenever he felt down.
@@anonymous-fw2fd it gets better with time trust me, there will be times where you feel you can't run to anyone with your problems anymore or have anyone by your side when you've hit lower than rock bottom questioning is there even a point in keeping on going but in some way there is, I've been where you are so many times few weeks ago it's been much worse but I got through it and I do have something I would love to achieve in life like living freely on a motorbike. The point is, even if you can't see a reason to keep going, it's always better than standing still
Bro, you are an AMAZING story teller, and this is the only video I've seen from your channel. I've also dealt with anxiety a lot in my life, but I'm making an effort to break out of my comfort zones and take those leaps of faith that a younger me would've been terrified to take. Hell, I wore a full body Spider-Man suit to my high school for a day, and that choice pushed me into the most confident version of myself that I've ever been.
This video perfectly puts into words why I love Spider-Man. He's a symbol of determination and will, a beacon of empathy and kindness and confidence, the personification of ALWAYS getting back up, no matter how bad life gets. Change is scary, but sometimes change is exactly what we need to become better versions of ourselves, and that's what we should all strive towards. Anyone can wear the mask.
"The thing you often fear didn't start of as your own fear, but was other's that you adopted" It is a line I think often about, because I'm mostly just scared. To scared to push myself further and becoming angry at myself when I fail to live up to my own exeptations. And this anger doesn't motivate me to try harder but to take less risk to begin with.
I was to an exam in psychologi where I fail my exeptations. I got B where I knew I could get A, and I know it sound like it don't matter, as B is still a great grade. But to me if not an A it just failer because it is emotion, and emotions don't often makes sense.
I know I need to push myself a bit outside of my comfroble with to build hgher levels of resilients, which mean that I will be better to overcome trauma and stress, two things that often control my life. But that leap of faith just scares me to much
I feel this so hard. You just articulated my own experience perfectly. I think part of me puts my expectations so high because failure (of a sort, e.g. getting a B or otherwise doing anything less then my perfect best) is achievable and safe and familiar. If I lower my expectations, there's a chance I could actually meet them, which means that if I still don't, then I'm REALLY a failure. Emotions don't have to make sense, as you said 😂
Anyway, thank you for your comment! It plus the video helped me discover something about myself that I can work on to pull myself out of the failure=safe mindset. Small steps, small achievements,proving to myself that I CAN accomplish goals and peeling away that cling film of suffocating comfort they keeps me from growing.
Cheers, internet stranger!
I just noticed this but when he’s talking about the main conflict being getting dragged out of a comfort zone, if you pay attention to the lighting in miles room it looks so warm and happy in there and everything else has a colder tone to it, a more realistic tone but his room looks so bright and warm
Leaving my comfort zone is sometimes just ordering food or confronting a person or even talking to a person i don’t know. This video has added so much more meaning to this movie i never saw! Thank you
this video made me cry so much. i'm sort of embarrassed to admit it but goddamn how could i not when it hits home a little too hard, more than i'd like it to? this is practically the reason why i've looked up to spiderman all these years. i need to do something about this. i've to learn to be comfortable with the discomfort.
amazing video btw!!
24:20 fav part fs.
Really, really great video. I love the message of Spider-Man, "Anyone can wear the mask". Its always been super inspiring to me.
Would love to see your opinion on Across the Spiderverse at some point.
This video was absolutely amazing. Impactful, vulnerable and you captured what made this movie one of the greatest animated movies of our time. Thanks for this
This is my favorite movie, I relate to Miles so much, felt everything in the skin while watching the movie, it's perfect.
This is a well-crafted video essay. Almost five years after the movie was released, people are still discussing it and finding new things to love about it. Love to see it!
Into the Spiderverse had already been out for about 2 years around a time where I was moving across the state with my family, going to a new school, having to make new friends in a awkward time of growing up. I vividly remember watching it multiple times in a day before, during, and after packing for the move. It was a really scary time in my life, and I always could relate a little to Miles in a way. That fear of getting older, of changes you weren't expecting.
Into the Spiderverse is my biggest comfort movie, and even though it has only been out for 5 years, it makes me feel really Nostalgic.
Out of every scene in this movie... Despite the visuals, spectacle and story telling, my favorite is Miles picking up a Spidey suit from Stan at the store
"Can I return it if it doesn't fit?"
"It always fits. Eventually."
I didn't know that watching this video would hit me so hard. I've been struggling with things described in it without realising it for so long and when it finally came to me I started crying. I got to know why this film is so motivating for me and why I relate to Miles in some situations. Thanks for making me realise some things and pushing me to do more and kind of step out of my comfort zone.
Such a great video as always man!
I love Miles, But DAMN do I love Peter B Parker Story and Character development in this movie. His story is everything I was expecting/hoping to see in Spiderman 4 by Sam Raimi. I really hope to see more of him in Across and Beyond the Spiderverse
I'm 26 years old, and the truth is that I've never seriously thought about what I should do with my life, what to dedicate myself to, or what kind of work to pursue. I've been in a relationship for 7 years, and she has helped me a lot in everything, but I feel that, just like my parents had certain expectations about what I should study, my partner has unconsciously placed certain expectations on how I should live my life to fit together.
The truth is that I struggle to take a step forward when an opportunity presents itself, and I think I've just realized this. Your video is amazing, and it has relieved the anxiety that has been following me for years. I will continue to try to be the best version of myself, aiming to be a good friend and neighbor to my city and my family.
I can't even remember the last time I left a comment on a youtube video, but I have to for this one. This is genuinely one of the greatest video essays I've seen. Period! Completely captivated me. You gave new meaning to this movie and the characters in it. It's something that, like this movie, I'll hold near and dear to my heart.
I was just sitting here and thinking about how the sequel is gonna be a wild ride and there you are.... No doubt these 30 minutes are gonna be fire🔥
P. S. holy shit, man, I got chills...
The one thing that consistently makes me tear up in movies and shows is scene showing vulnerability between a father and son.
I wanna let you know, I was listening to this video on my way to work today, and you had me sobbing in the car. The way you depict anxiety and the way the film depicts that got me more emotional than I ever have while watching this film. And I think I have a new appreciation for this film because of you! Keep up the fantastic work
Someone made me realize this and I just wanted to spread it but when Miles take that leap of faith he was still scared and hesitant and the greatest visual of this was when he jumped he broke the glass physically he didn't want to let go but mentally he pushed through
Expectations has been with a conflict with me for the longest time and this hits hard
This was a beautiful analysis. I can't wait for your take on the sequel!
Is it weird to compared the first Spiderverse and Mile's journey to Beau is Afraid. I think both films really explored anxiety to the the extreme. One in an inspiring matter where you find people who shared the same fear/trauma, making each other grow stronger. While the other in an absurdly, nightmarish scenarios where you don't overcome the fear as you trust the voice in your head that you don't deserve other. It really goes to show how empathy and trust is key to overcome daily anxiety.
Growing up blindly just wanting to be the adult my anger driven perfectionist seeming step father wanted me to be, from youth to even recent years I've only recently started healing, so it genuinely feels inspiring and uniquely supporting. To grow up getting to see Toph, Zuko and even Iroh recover from their assumptions, failures, fears and less than compassionate caregivers. Only to achieve so much in the aftershock of the hardships they pressed on through. Flowers on the vibe makes my grown are adult self cry nearly every time, it's tribute to the lossof Mako. He taught me; Acceptance of the dark and embracing what light remains, is so so so important.
Thank you for your video. I've been doing an internship and I've felt very stretched and out of my comfort zone this entire time, but I've just kept trying and trying. Im doing mechanical engineering, and I realized I had made a part that was not possible to machine by accident. Which meant I would have to start over on my project. I felt like giving up. But as I was going to my comfort zone of youtube I found your video, and listened as I tried again.
Your analysis really helped me, and has been something I never realized I struggled with. All Im trying to say with this is thank you. Thank you for your ideas, and your sincerity when sharing your video. Im going to get out of my comfot zone again because of your work. You definitly earned my respect and a sub. Keep up the awesome work!
Peter b parker was also in the second stage of his spider journey, responsibility and distance from loved ones, and miles actually sparked peters desire to fix his life
This video was beautiful, I’ve been in a rut recently. I’ve been really down on myself, crippled with anxiety. I want you to know that your video had a massive impact on me. I’m now taking steps to climb out of a hole which I previously thought was impossible because of you.
Brilliant review and perspective. You really emphasized the overall meaning and characterization in this movie that many people including myself especially really resonated to. We are all and can be Spider-Man. 🕷🕸❤️💙
This is possibly the best video essay I’ve ever seen about this great movie! All the things that our minds subconsciously notice, you’ve put into words so beautifully! Damn good job!
16:25 "the fear that the people we care about us the way we need them to"
Bro you have no idea how much that hit me. I have been solitary all my life and I can make connections with people but there always feels like theres an aspect of myself I never uncover. I feel like I communicate in such a distinct way and I worry that I won't find anyone that genuinly understands
A masterclass in expositional analysis! Fabulous work!
Recently got into video essay content after trying to move away from constant comedy entertainment nonsense and this is fire theres so much more in depth meaning then just watching people joke around for hours
You are a content creator whose work I will never get impatient waiting for because I know the end result will be a thoughtful, human, moving piece that-through a combination of the tone of your voice and the music you choose for the background-will always make me cry. And I am always surprised after I’m done crying, because I always needed that cry but wasn’t aware of that need until it’s happening. Thank you for all of your hard work and passion!
I just want to say miles dad is a amazing dad better then most it’s just that he doesn’t realize what he does to miles but if he did I know he would try his best to stop.
Incredibly resonant video. This really taps into the deep themes of this movie and has several revealations I've been having as I am growing and learning more about life during university.
Leaps of faith can be terrifying, but sometimes you just need to *do*.
I'm still learning how to take those leaps of faith and try new things.
Have great expectations, always get up and try. And never be unkind to yourself.
Great video Storystreet!
Glad that you're tackling this film! Love the way you analyse stuff that I thought weren't present there.
I feel you projected onto Miles' Dad a whole lot.
One of the most motivating and well written videos I've ever seen.
Holly macaroni, I need to start taking more leaps
ITSV is one of the most powerful movies I have ever seen. I really resonate with Miles’ journey throughout the movie, which is why he’s my favorite Spider-Man. Thank you so much for making this video.
Thank you for this!
It also works so well because we know from previous media that that leap of faith is what spiderman does. He doesn't know if he's gonna succeed but he knows he has to try anyway because no one else can.
I actually cried watching this
Thank you for this video man. I needed it
Amazing analysis. Great video
This was fantastically written and analyzed!
I absolutely love your videos. This was incredibly moving.
An incredible analysis, amazing even.
when you were describing miles dad i suddenly thought of my dad
Absolutely beautiful video. Thank you
An unbelievably powerful video, Great work!
Thank you for this from the bottom of my heart Alex!
This was a great video. Thanks I needed this today!
Wow! Beautifully done sir, just wow.
Your videos make me cry all the time thank you storystreet❤
I just really needed to hear this from the bottom of my heart, thank you and keep up the great work because your words have genuinely moved me.
This video made my cry. Resonated so damn hard.
Honestly inspirational, keep pushing.
I almost cried at the end bro 😭
Actually tho, thank you for this video. I’ll take as a reminder that anxiety is a thing that can be conquered, and it all starts with one leap of faith.
Really needed a vid like this rn, thank you
Now that’s a powerful video. Bravo, my friend, and thank you
one of the best videos i see in my life
i think this video found me when i needed it
24:04 Dang it, I'm at work. I can't be tearing up like this!
Great job 👍🏻 Thank you for this
this video made me cry
just wanted to say that your videos always reignite the love i have for the movies and stories you talk about. i always look forward to your videos so keep it up your videos mean a lot to me
It’s a pleasure watching you bring a fresh take on one of my favorite films ever
You word these things so perfectly it's making me tear up bro
Absolutly amazing video, made me cry!!❤
You and your writing are amazing!
Beautiful video man, really inspiring
OMG! Thank you for this video. Into The Spider-Verse is one of my favorites movies & I can’t wait for its sequel!
Great video. I've seen so many interpretations of this story and all of them are so powerful, and just make me love this movie even more. Amazing job!
My leap of faith was moving to Toronto from Greece.. My sister was already there, living with her roommate in a one bedroom apartment.
Definitely one of the most heartfelt videos I've watched in a long while
StoryStreet and one of my all time favourite movies. What a match. Thank you for the effort of this script, the editing, and the time of putting it all together.
I didnt realise how much i needed to see this video, until after i watched. Thank you for that.
Great video, commentary and narration.
Good job!! Solid.
